So Over It is available!
27 October 2009
I’m a dork.
I’m aware of this fact, and I’m at the point in my life where I’m just going to embrace it.
I just noticed that So Over It is AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER. It’s only on Amazon so far, which is funny to me. Like I’m surprised that they have it up and Revell doesn’t, but I’m far from understanding the ins and outs of that aspect of the business. (During my school visit at Shawnee Mission Northwest last week, one student asked me about how distribution works, and my answer was something like, “Uh…”)
Anyway, So Over It, which is the third and final book in The Reinvention of Skylar Hoyt series, is available for pre-order eight months early. Crazy.
So while I was being obsessive and seeing who else had the book available (no one), I saw a review for Me, Just Different posted on a bookseller site. I’ve seen the review before, but it had been hiding beneath the over-critical, crazy-stressed-out part of my brain.
It’s a glowing review posted by a teenager I don’t know, and every specific compliment coincides with things that I made a huge effort to implement. (For example, she talks about the book not being edgy for edginess sake.) A cooler writer would be like, “Good reviews? Bad reviews? It’s all the same to me. I’m gonna keep writing what I want to write—forget the critics!”
But since I’ve embraced my inner dork, I printed out the review and posted it on the bulletin board by my desk. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy every time I glance over and see it, and that’s something we can all use a little more of.
Happy Tuesday!

Well, Ms. Dork, you’re in good company here with your Ms. Nerd friend. =) And I’d be pinning that baby up too!
